Calendar Terms
Last Day To Add Without Permission
Last day to add a course without permission of instructor. MyPack Portal closes for adds at 11:59 p.m. After this day, please contact the instructor in order to add a class. Once an instructor has approved your enrollment, they will work with the department directly to enroll you in the course. Instructors with questions regarding the enrollment process should speak with their department.
Note: Waitlists for ALL classes are dropped this day. All waitlisted students will be removed.
Census Date
Census Date/Official Enrollment Date: Last day to add a course with permission of instructor. Last day for tuition refunds due to dropping a course or changing from credit to audit. Last day for undergraduate students to drop below 12 hours.
*Last day for ALL students to drop a course without a W grade.*
* Please note: For undergraduate students taking classes in the second 8-week session of the semester, the last day to drop below 12 hours or without a W grade is NOT the same as Census Date. Please consult the academic calendar.
Wellness Day
Wellness Days are scheduled each year as a way for students to take a break, re-center themselves and focus on their holistic well-being. There are no classes on Wellness Days and instructors should avoid any tests or deadlines on that day and the day following the Wellness Day. For a listing of activities associated with Wellness Days, please visit the Wolfpack Wellness website.
Drop/Revision Deadline
Drop/Revision Deadline: All drops or schedule revisions made after this date will require the submission of a Schedule Revision Request through the Enrollment Wizard in MyPack Portal. Last day to change to credit only at ALL levels.
Note: Students enrolled in mini-courses should consult the Eight-Week Calendar above regarding drop deadlines.
“Last Week of Semester”
“Last Week of Semester”: Lab tests, semester project reports and presentations are permissible during the final week of classes. Papers and homework may have a due date during the final week of classes only if scheduled in the syllabus. However, in order for students to prepare for final examinations, faculty members may not assign other tests, quizzes or additional papers during the final week of classes. Assignments should not have a due date during the final exam period unless the assignment constitutes a part of the final exam. Exceptions to this policy must be approved in advance by the department head and the dean of the college involved. Students should contact the appropriate instructor or department head if they believe an assignment is not in compliance with this regulation.
Term Withdrawal Deadline
Last day to submit a withdrawal request for the term. Any requests after this date are considered retroactive and require the same conditions as a term withdrawal, but must also be initiated by the Counseling Center.
